I've heard mixed stuff on Nixon in relation to JFK. One source I heard that I consider reliable said that Nixon and Kennedy were actually friends. The had served in WWII together or at least in the vicinity of each other. Nixon knew he won the election against Kennedy, but he also knew that contesting it would tear America apart. So when Barry Goldwater was pushing him to fight the election fraud (and everybody now knows that Joe Kennedy bought the election in Chicago, which is how JFK won) Nixon said it would be too divisive and conceded so as not to divide America. There's reportedly a tape of Nixon straight up saying that the CIA was behind JFK's assassination and that LBJ had his hands in it too.
And apparently somebody warned Nixon that people were planning a break-in to the Watergate to try to take Nixon out, but Nixon didn't think they would actually go that far. He sure found out differently.
And didn't Q talk about Hillary being a 27-year-old intern back then who was looking to get her hands on the pedophile list, which is what the Watergate break-in was really about? Or maybe that was just on Q research. I can't remember for sure. But I know there was some discussion about Hillary being fired for her shenanigans that actually related to Watergate and her being seen as a lowlife even that far back.
I think that most presidents knew politics is a dirty game. I think what they didn't know was HOW dirty. And how low these people were willing to go to have their way. I think Nixon figured that out when JFK was assassinated and maybe he had a different approach from that point forward.
Goldwater liked Jack Kennedy. He was looking forward to the debates, where conservative ideology would challenge and be challenged by the best of liberal ideology. He despised Nixon because Nixon looked him in the eye and lied to him, which prompted his famous rebuke that Nixon could stay in China.
No, not at all. Never read Goldwater"s late in life memoirs. In regard to JFK s campaign, Goldwater knew it was being run by Joe. He was steeped in old west tradition about a man's word and honor, but he was also a realist who could separate the son from the father.
Seems like the big questions are.. “what did he cover up that got him impeached”, “why”, “did he even cover anything up or was that a lie, too”, “what did they actually find to get him to go along with the impeachment and resign”?
One other reason they hated him…. He shut down their offensive bioweapon production labs at Fort Detrick. Kek.
He wasn't impeached. He resigned before they could vote on the articles of impeachment against him. They weren't petty back then. Democrats today would impeach regardless of a resignation.
Yeah, my language is off, but I’m basically wondering what the actual pressure was that caused him to resign.
The narrative was, if I recall, that “he didn’t want to put the nation through it”.
I’m just wondering what it actually was. We may never know.
